Bellator 69’s main card airs on MTV2 (and in high-definition on EPIX), and Spike.com streams the prelims.

Although initially expected at Bellator 70, Falcao vs. Spang instead takes place a week prior at Bellator 69. After winning their respective semifinal fights at Bellator 66, the fighters got into a brief in-cage scuffle during a photo opportunity. Spang, a late-replacement in the tourney who initiated the shoving match, avoided a suspension but was fined 20 percent of his purse.

The Falcao vs. Spang winner meets Alexander Shlemenko (45-7 MMA, 7-1 BFC) later this year for the Bellator middleweight title, which Hector Lombard recently vacated with his move to the UFC.

A total of 26 fighters got their chance to shine on Saturday as part of UFC 190 at Rio de Janeiro’s HSBC Arena. Now that UFC 190 is in the books, it’s time to commence MMAjunkie’s “Three Stars” ceremony.

The man known for cranking submissions to the point of injury added eye-gouging to his repertoire. But is the controversy of Rousimar Palhares too essential to his bizarre, awful appeal for his employers to take any meaningful action against him?
